Hidup

HIDUP

Tak semua apa yang indah juga indah didalamnya

karena kita hanya menggunakan mata.

Mata, indera yang dapat melihat diluarnya saja

Tapi ingat!

Jika kita membicarakan kejelekan orang lain

niscaya ucapan akan berbalik pada kita sendiri.

Maka dari itu,

Jangan sia-siakan hidup satu kali ini saja!

Berlomba-lombalah memperbanyak amal kebajikan

karena kita tidak tahu

kapan ajal kita akan menjemput pada pangkuan ilahi.

Mungkin saja

besok tubuh kita sudah terbungkus kain kafan.

Wallahu a’lam.

Sebaik-baiknya pengingat adalah orang yang ingat akan kematiannya

Manusia!

Apa yang kamu ketahui tentang hal itu?

Individu?

Interaksi?

Egois?

Sabar?

Entahlah.

Pemahamannya saja sudah membingungkan.

Lalu, bagaimana dengan diriku?

Aku lebih suka menyendiri, tetapi butuh interaksi.

Aku yang selalu berusaha sabar dalam mengendalikan sebuah keegoisan.

Bagaimana caraku untuk memahami semua hal di dunia ini?

Memahami diri sendiri saja aku tidak bisa.
